Happy Makar Sankrant! Growing up, I remember celebrating festival of Makar Sankrant by visiting family and friends and wishing them “Tilgul ghya goad goad bola” which literally means “Take tilgul and talk sweetly”. On the Sankrant evening, we dressed in our pretty traditional outfits and went around the neighborhoods, collecting different varieties of sweet treats made with sesame seeds called tilgul. My favorite amongst the sweet treats, was the crispy and crunchy sesame chikki{crisps}. Made with sesame seeds, sugar and a hint of cardamom and salt, these sesame chikki make an irresistible and yummy winter snack.
